00:00The End
00:30Is this tonight's table boy's supper?
00:34Good.
00:36See that the boy has this tonight.
00:39And you shall have the prettiest frock that money can buy.
00:56What's for supper?
00:58Oh, never mind that.
00:59There's a man.
01:00Ned.
01:01A word with you.
01:02What business have you here?
01:04Business that might put something in your pocket.
01:06You're the favourite for the Wessex Carpentry.
01:08So you're one of those damn tubs.
01:11I'll show you how we serve them here.
01:23Why, Edith, whatever is the matter?
01:25Oh, my, Mr. Straker, at the stables, Ned, when I went to take him his supper, this man...
01:31Come on, Ned.
01:31Oh, my, Mr. Straker, at the stables of the Wessex Carpentry.
01:36Oh, my, Mr. Straker, at the stables of the Wessex Carpentry.
01:38Oh, my, Mr. Straker, at the stables of the Wessex Carpentry.
01:40Oh, my, Mr. Straker, at the stables of the Wessex Carpentry.
01:42Oh, my, Mr. Straker, at the stables of the Wessex Carpentry.
01:44Oh, my, Mr. Straker, at the stables of the Wessex Carpentry.
01:46Oh, my, Mr. Straker, at the stables of the Wessex Carpentry.
01:48Oh, my, Mr. Straker, at the stables of the Wessex Carpentry.
01:49Ned!
01:51Ned!
01:53Where the devil are you?
01:55Right.
01:57John?
01:59People around that way.
02:01Hold it.
02:03I'm not sure.
02:05I'm not sure.
02:07I'm not sure.
02:09I'm not sure.
02:11I'm not sure.
02:13I'm not sure.
02:15I'm not sure.
02:17I've lost them.
02:19What about my favourite?
02:21It's alright, oh boy.
02:23It's alright, oh boy.
02:25It's alright, oh boy.
02:27Yes, yes, yes.
02:29Yes.
02:31Yes, you're fine, aren't you?
02:33You're fine.
02:35No harm done.
02:37Yes.
02:39Yes, you're fine, aren't you?
02:41You're fine.
02:43No harm done.
02:45Yes, you're fine.
02:47Yes, you're fine.
02:49eau
03:15The favorite for the Wessex cup
03:25has been spirited away
03:28and his trainer
03:31brutally murdered.
03:34By Jove!
03:45I am afraid, Watson, that I shall have to go.
04:05Obliged.
04:08We're going well.
04:10Our present rate is fifty-three and a half miles an hour.
04:17I have not observed the quarter-mile posts.
04:20Nor have I, but the telegraph posts upon this line are sixty yards apart
04:23and the calculations are a very simple one.
04:25I presume you've looked into the matter.
04:28Oh, yes.
04:29Well, I've seen what the telegraph and the quantifier have to say.
04:32Well.
04:34Well, it would seem that the intruder, this fellow,
04:39Fitzroy Simpson,
04:41having drug the lad's supper with powdered opium before he stays off,
04:46waited until he was unconscious
04:49and returned with a duplicate key.
04:54Yes.
04:57That is the case.
04:59As it appears to the police.
05:12Time for Stark!
05:14Time for Stark!
05:16It's very good of you to meet us, Colonel Ross.
05:23Never mind about that.
05:24Now, the race is on Tuesday.
05:26That means you have four days to recover the horse.
05:29And, of course, fine for Stark's murderer.
05:39Silver blaze was descended from, er, isonomy, I understand.
05:42And every bit as brilliant as his ancestor.
05:44Which is why, until he disappeared, he led the betting for the Wessex Cup.
05:48Three to one on.
05:49Well, hardly worth a bet at that price.
05:51Wrong, sir.
05:52Enormous sums of money have been laid on him.
05:58It's quite obvious, Watson, that there are many people
06:00who have the strongest motive to prevent silver blaze from running.
06:04How many have also had the opportunity?
06:06Is something else again?
06:18Ah!
06:19Any fresh developments?
06:20Mr. Gregory.
06:21Mr. Holmes.
06:22Mr. Gregory.
06:23My men found Fitzroy Simpson.
06:25I have placed him under arrest.
06:28Is that wise?
06:29Oh, the circumstances are strong against him.
06:31Yes, but what is his motive?
06:33An examination of his book showed that he had 5,000 pounds entered against silver blaze.
06:41That's why I came here, wasn't it?
06:44To try and get some inside information.
06:47I also visited Capleton.
06:50Capleton?
06:51A larger training establishment across the moor.
06:53The second favourite trains there under Silas Brown.
06:57But you do not deny that on your first visit here,
07:00you acted as described.
07:02It was my only visit and I didn't drug the lad.
07:07Both he and the maid swear they saw a packet in your hand.
07:11It was a ten pound note.
07:15To buy information.
07:18A ten pound note was found upon him.
07:20Against that, he spent the night on the moor.
07:22His quarry was sore.
07:23I was scared.
07:24I was carrying this.
07:25I was carrying this.
07:33A Penang lawyer.
07:37Weighted with lead.
07:38Just such a weapon as might have brained a man.
07:43Aye.
07:44And to clench it, this was found in the dead man's hand.
07:47I must have dropped it as I ran.
07:48He must have come upon it by chance.
07:51Hold the dark mortar room upon him.
07:55On the other hand, where's the wound?
07:59There's no wound upon him.
08:01The state of Straker's knife would show that at least one of his assailants bears its mark.
08:06Well, there you have it all in a nutshell, Watson.
08:11Can you give me any light?
08:14Unless Straker wounded himself in the convulsive struggles which follow any brain injury.
08:21Hmm.
08:23In that case, the main point in your favor disappears.
08:27Even the dog is against him.
08:47Good guy.
08:48Good guy.
08:49Good guy.
08:50There's a good guy.
08:51Don't worry.
08:52Don't worry.
08:53Don't worry.
08:54Yes.
08:59As you say.
09:00Don't worry.
09:01Good guy.
09:21Now, the other training stable is quite close by, I understand.
09:23Yes.
09:24And as Desbra, their horse was second in the betting, they'd have an interest in the disappearance of the favorite now, wouldn't they?
09:33Hmm.
09:34The point has not escaped me.
09:36Hmm.
09:38Silas Brown, the trainer, is known to have had very large bets on the event.
09:41And he was no friend to Bush Straker.
09:43However, we have examined his tables very carefully.
09:45Very carefully.
09:46There is nothing to connect him with the affair.
09:47Mm-hmm.
09:48Uh-huh.
09:49Uh-huh.
09:50Uh-huh.
09:51Excuse me, I'm daydreaming.
10:21Perhaps you would prefer to go at once to the scene of the crime, Mr. Holmes.
10:27I think I should prefer to stay here a little and go into one or two questions of detail.
10:36Straker was a jockey, was he not?
10:39Until he became too heavy for the weighing chair.
10:42Did he serve you in that capacity?
10:44Five years. And since then, no. Seven as a trainer.
10:49During that time, you never found him to be an...
10:51I always found him to be an excellent servant.
10:57I presume you made an inventory of all the things he had in his pocket at the time of his death, Inspector.
11:02They have the things themselves here.
11:11Box of matches.
11:13Two inches of tallow candle.
11:15Briar root pipe.
11:17Seal skin pouch.
11:20With, uh, half an ounce of long-cut cabbage.
11:26Silver watch. Gold chain. Five sovereigns. Aluminium.
11:30Pencil case. Some papers.
11:36And the knife.
11:38A very singular knife.
11:44I presume, as it has bloodstains upon us, that is the one found in the dead man's grasp.
11:54Watson, this knife surely is in your line.
11:57I wouldn't expect to find it in the possession of anyone other than a knife surgeon.
12:08It is a cataract knife.
12:09I thought so.
12:11A very delicate blade devised for very delicate work.
12:15A strange thing for a man to carry on a rough expedition.
12:18Especially as it wouldn't shut in his pocket.
12:20The tip was guarded by a disc of cork which we found beside the body.
12:25His wife tells us that the knife had lain for some days upon the dressing table
12:29and that, uh, he'd picked it up as he left the room.
12:36A poor weapon, indeed.
12:38But perhaps the only one he could lay his hand on at the moment.
12:42Hmm, possibly.
12:44Uh, what about these papers?
12:46Hey.
12:48Well, three of them are receipted hay dealers accounts.
12:52One of them is a letter of instruction from Colonel Ross.
12:57This is, uh, a milliner's account.
13:00Uh, for thirty-seven pounds fifteen.
13:02Made out by Madame Le Jurier of Bond Street to William Derbyshire.
13:06Uh, Mrs. Sticker tells us that Derbyshire was a friend of her husband
13:09and his, uh, letters were from time to time addressed here.
13:12Madame Derbyshire has a much expensive tastes.
13:14Twenty-two guineas for a single costume.
13:18Are they heavy?
13:20However, there appears to be nothing more to learn.
13:24And, uh, we may now go down to the scene of the crown.
13:28I perceive the ground is trampled up a good deal here.
13:33There's no doubt several people have been here since the body was discovered.
13:36A piece of matting has been laid here at the side.
13:39We have all stood upon that.
13:40Now that's excellent.
13:41In this bag, I have one of the boots, Sticker Ward,
13:46one of Fitzroy Simpson's shoes,
13:48and a cast horseshoe of Silverblaze.
13:50My dear Inspector, you surpass yourself.
13:52I know mine is the main girl and his boots.
13:54I am the one at the office.
13:55I am the one at theft Jenny and the other.
13:56The other my friend is,
13:57I am the "'Portless gear",
13:59and I am the one at the top of the right legs.
14:00I am the one at the starts with my head.
14:01I mean, I haven't had a small distance of my head.
14:02This is a little lived beautiful and you know I can't do this.
14:03I am the one at the top of my head.
14:04I'm the one at the top of my head.
14:05They are all over the top of my head.
14:06Hello. What's this?
14:28Used match.
14:30I cannot think how I overlooked it.
14:33It was invisible.
14:34Buried in the mud.
14:35I only saw it because I was searching for it.
14:39Weren't you expected to find it?
14:42I thought it not unlikely.
14:58I'm afraid there are no more tracks.
15:00I've examined the ground very carefully for a hundred yards in each direction.
15:04Indeed.
15:05I shall not have the impertinence to do it again.
15:08But I should like to take a little walk across the moors before it grows dark, that I may know my ground.
15:16And I think I'll put this horseshoe in my pocket for luck.
15:18I wish you to come back with me, Inspector.
15:22For several points, I wish I should like your advice, especially whether we do not owe it to the public to withdraw Silverblaze's name from the entries for the cup.
15:31Certainly not.
15:33Let it stand.
15:34Come, Watson.
15:35It's this way, Watson.
15:38It's this way, Watson.
15:39We may leave the question of who killed John Straker for the instant and confine ourselves to finding out what has become of the horse.
15:59Now, suppose that he broke away during or after the tragedy.
16:04The horse is a very gregarious animal.
16:06Left to himself, his instincts would have been either to return to his own stables or go to the nearest, which is Capleton.
16:13Well, he's not at his own.
16:15Therefore, he's at Capleton.
16:18Let us take that as a working hypothesis and see what it leads us to.
16:34We want no lawyer to us here.
16:37I only wish to ask a question.
16:38Now, should I be too early to meet your master, Mr. Silas Brown, if I were to call at five o'clock in the morning?
16:45Why, bless you, sir.
16:46If anyone was to be about, he would be, for he's always the first stirring.
16:51But here he is now, sir, to answer your questions for himself.
16:54Well, thank you very much.
16:55I'm much obliged to you.
16:56No, no, no, sir.
16:57I couldn't take that.
16:58It would be more than my place is worth if you were to so much as see me touch your money.
17:02Watch this door for you.
17:03No gossiping.
17:04Get out of your business.
17:08And you, sir.
17:13How about the devil do you want?
17:16Ten minutes' talk with you, my good sir.
17:19I've no time to talk to every gadabout.
17:22We want no strangers here.
17:26Be off.
17:27Or you may find a dog at your heels.
17:29That's a lie.
17:38That's an infernal lie.
17:41Very good.
17:43Shall we argue about it here in public?
17:46Or talk it over in your parlor?
17:49Well, come in if you wish to.
17:54Can't keep you more than a few minutes, Watson.
17:56Come in.
18:26remember now your instructions will be done it shall be done there must be no mistake there
18:35shall be no mistakes it shall be there shall i change it before or not
18:42no don't no tricks now oh you can trust me you can trust me yes i think i can
18:55hmm you shall hear from me tomorrow
18:59the more perfect compound of the bully sneak coward than silas brown i have yet to meet
19:13he knows where the horse is then oh he tried to bluster but it was those peculiarly square-toed
19:20boots of his that gave the game away they exactly corresponded with the impressions we found here
19:24this afternoon but are you not afraid to leave the horse in his power my dear fellow he will guard
19:29it as the apple of his eye his only hope is to produce it safe he knows that
19:34colonel ross did not impress me as a man who would be likely to show mercy in any case i have my own
19:42methods that's the advantage of being unofficial besides the colonel's manner has been a trifle
19:47cavalier with me i'm inclined to have a little amusement at his expense say nothing to him
19:52about this oh certainly not without your permission after all the question of the horse is quite minor
19:57compared with the question of who killed john straker and uh you will devote yourself to that
20:03on the contrary we both go back to london by the night train
20:06i have every hope that your horse will start on tuesday and i have little or none
20:15well there it is then
20:19now i'm ready for tavistock and the night express
20:24i beg you to have your jockey in readiness
20:28you have some sheep in the paddock who attends to them
20:38i do sir
20:40you noticed anything amiss with them of late
20:44oh not of much account
20:46in the last fortnight say
20:48well three of them have gone lame sir
20:51that's a long shot watson a very long shot
20:56goodbye colonel ross see you at the races inspector gregory
21:00may i recommend to your attention this singular epidemic among the sheep
21:05you consider that to be important
21:09exceedingly so
21:11is there any other point to which you would wish to draw my attention
21:16to the curious incident of the dog
21:19when the horse was led out from the stables
21:22but the dog did nothing when the horse was led out from the stable
21:28that was the curious incident
21:41you would have got fifteen to one yesterday but the prices go shorter and shorter
21:52hmm somebody knows something that's clear
22:06what's that silver blaze favorite
22:10silver blaze favorite
22:14tear the numbers up
22:16all six there
22:18all six there
22:20and the horse is running
22:21i don't see him
22:23well only five have passed
22:25colors are not past
22:27i want these though
22:29i have a colors
22:30that's not my horse not a white hair upon his body
22:34well well
22:43here they come
22:46who has the yellow cap and sleeves
22:47desbra
22:49desbra's in the lead
22:51oh he shot his boat i fancy
22:54another false challenge
22:58your colors colonel
22:59a little too late
23:02i think not
23:18just look at that
23:24capital
23:26capital
23:29it's my race anyhow
23:30i confess i can make neither head nor tail of it
23:33don't you think you've kept up your mystery long enough mr holmes
23:37certainly colonel
23:38you shall know everything
23:41let us go around and have a look at the winner
23:43together
23:50little spirits of wine
23:55and
23:56same old silver blaze as ever
23:59you take my breath away
24:01i found him in the hands of a faker
24:04and took the liberty of running him just as he was
24:07dear sir
24:09i owe you a thousand apologies
24:11you've done me a great service by recovering my horse
24:14you'd do me a greater still if you could lay your hands on the murderer of john straker
24:17i have done sir
24:20what
24:21you got him
24:23where is he
24:24where is he
24:27it may lessen his guilt if i say
24:30that it was done in self-defense
24:31and that john straker
24:35was a man entirely unworthy of your confidence
24:38don't keep us on tenterhooks man
24:51i was prepared to believe that fitzroy simpson was the true culprit
24:56although of course i saw that the evidence against him was by no means complete
25:00the first positive indication of his innocence came
25:07paradoxically from the enmity of the dog
25:13we saw how the animal reacted to him when the horse was led out
25:18it alarmed no one therefore the thief could not have been simpson
25:22it must have been someone the dog knew well
25:26which is when the immense significance of the curry occurred to me
25:32simpson a stranger could not have caused that to be served
25:37it was too monstrous a coincidence to suppose that he happened to come along with powdered opium
25:43upon the very night when a dish happened to be served which would disguise the flavor
25:46the culprit had to be a member of the household
25:53trainers have been known to enrich themselves by injuring their charges
25:57but why and how should straker do so
26:02men do not as a rule carry about with them other men's bills
26:09a visit to madame de zurier's shop answered the why of the matter
26:13john straker led a double life as william derbyshire maintaining a lady with expensive tastes in saint john's wood
26:24as to the howl
26:27a man who acquires a very special surgical knife may reasonably be supposed to be contemplating surgery
26:34but surely a layman would need to practice surgical skills
26:37it was the lame sheep which told me the method straker had in mind
26:44it was to slightly cut the favorite's tendon and do it subcutaneously so as to leave no trace
26:53the lameness would be put down to a strain in exercise or a touch of rheumatism never to foul play
26:59straker had to take the horse out onto the moor so spirited a creature would have roused the soundest
27:08of sleepers when it felt the prick of the knife it was absolutely necessary to do it in the open air
27:16he led the animal towards the hollow where his light would be invisible
27:32he came across the cravat which simpson lost in his flight and picked it up perhaps with some idea of
27:38using it to secure the horse's leg the marks in the hollow show that the horse was uneasy
27:46animals sent fear and by then straker must have been afraid
27:57he got behind the horse he got the knife out
28:01he struck a match
28:11that was the final straw
28:16here is your murderer wonderful wonderful he might have been there
28:26you've explained it all but one thing where was he kept ah
28:31he bolted and was cared for by one of your neighbors
28:35he must have an amnesty in that direction i think must must
28:45as always when i am called to a case we were suffering from a plethora of surmise conjecture hypothesis
29:04the difficulty was to detach the framework of fact of absolute undeniable fact from the embellishments of
29:20reporters theorists and if i may say
29:27police inspectors
